Twas somewhat curious as to who would help me at this moment. After all, almost no one in school dared to provoke Wang Hao.
“Brother Hao, it seems to be a teacher. Why don’t we leave first? Moreover, this girl is a little crazy. It seems like she’s really going to risk her life.”
‘Wu Zijian was a little frightened when he saw the other party. I didn’t know if it was my actions that caused him to be afraid or if he was just afraid that the other party was a teacher.
Later on, I understood that Wu Zijian was only frightened by my crazy state. These hoodlums-like students had never cared about teachers. After all, the school was only their playground.
“Let’s go.” Wang Hao did not want to stay any longer and left with Wu Zijian.
Before leaving, Wang Hao looked at me deeply. I didn’t know what that look meant, but I knew that our matter was not over. He would still look for me in the future.
Talso turned around and saw the teacher. The teacher was dark and robust, but I had never seen him before. He should be a teacher from the high school.
After Wang Hao left, the teacher walked over. He looked at the two of them and said to me, “Classmate, are you alright? I heard that a student was being bullied here so I hurriedly came over. Tell me what happened.”
“It’s fine, teacher. We know each other. They were just joking with me.” I didn’t tell the truth, because I new this teacher could only help me this once. He couldn’t help me forever. I had to figure out a way to deal with my own problems.
“Are you really fine? Don’t lie to me. Our school will definitely not tolerate bullying. If they bully you, you must not be afraid. You have to tell me the truth, I will help you.”
The teacher continued to persuade me.
“No need, teacher. They weren’t bullying me. They were just joking.”
I still didn’t tell the teacher the truth.
“Alright, but if something like this happens again, you have to tell me.”
Seeing that I had no intention of telling him, the teacher didn’t pester me and left after reminding me.
I watched as the teacher gradually left. I couldn’t help but feel somewhat helpless. The reason why I didn’t tell him was because I didn’t know if he was good or bad.
If he was like Instructor Pan and only stood on the high ground of justice to denounce others, I would only be asking for trouble.
Moreover, even the principal with the greatest authority in this school sided with Wang Hao and the others. How could a teacher like him uphold the so-called justice?
Liu Tao’s matter made me not dare to believe anyone in this school again. No matter how pleasant their words were, I would not believe it. After all, even the principal sided with Wang Hao and punished Liu Tao, who had no background.
After sorting out my emotions, I quickened my pace and headed to the examination room. However, because of my encounter with Wang Hao, the examination was already about to start. After walking for a while, I chose to run to the examination room.
Fortunately, the bell that signaled the start of the test rang just as I arrived at the examination room.
I found my seat covered in sweat. The invigilator also began to distribute the papers. At this moment, I noticed that my deskmate, Li Ting, was also in the same examination room as me. She was clearly surprised to see me. She probably didn’t expect Wang Hao to let me back so easily.
I knew Wang Fangfang and Li Ting well. Wang Fangfang would only mock me in front of me, humiliate me, and even bring people to beat me up. However, Li Ting was a scheming person.
That was why she was able to become a “spy”.
I believe that many plans that were targeted at me were planned by my former best friend.
Of course, this also included the plan for Wang Hao to stop me from taking the examination.
Trestrained my emotions and began to answer the questions. However, I couldn’t calm down no matter what. Thinking of Wang Hao stopping me, Wang Fangfang, and the others from targeting me, I couldn’t help but be distracted.
The first subject of the middle school examination was Chinese. Originally, this subject was something I was good at. However, I was in a bad state and was extremely slow at answering the questions. Moreover, I was so distracted that I didn’t even know what I was writing, I didn’t start writing until more
than ten minutes before the examination ended.
The moment I saw the essay topic, I knew that I would have to struggle this time. It was the one topic that I did not know how to answer. The essay topic was ‘what are your aspirations”
Because my childhood was dark and boring, reading became my favorite thing to do after I started living in Instructor Liu’s house.
1 often came across all kinds of books to get to know this world. I also often wonder what would happen if I were the female protagonist of a fairy tale.
Because I’ve read all kinds of books since I was young, my writing foundation was very firm. Even if Instructor Liu set strict goals for me, I was still able to reach them.
However, when it came to this topic, I really couldn’t think of anything to write. I couldn’t exactly write that my aspiration was to have my own freedom and to get rid of the terrifying Instructor Liu. Whenever I wrote about my aspirations, I would always write lifelessly. The things I write would not seem
like they were something written by a girl in her prime.
Instructor Liu had said many times that he couldn’t tell what my aspiration was from my writing and that my words were also too depressing. However, living under the same roof as him, how could it be possible for me to have bright and positive aspirations?
The teachers in the Chinese department have all discussed me and told me not to write like this. My aspirations should have the vitality and youth of a young person.
However, I was really incapable of that. Because of my background, I was unable to have beautiful wishes. Nor could I write with positive words
As soon as I saw this essay topic, I knew that I was definitely going to fail this test.
Not to mention that there wasn’t much time left until the end of the test. I only wrote 500 words when the bell rang for the end of the test. I could only hurriedly end the essay and hand in the paper.
The morning’s muddle-headedness did not end with a lunch break. I was still in a bad state for the afternoon Math test, but I was only slightly worse than usual. I still had some hope.
The next day’s test was in English and History. After a night of adjustment, I did pretty well on these two tests. Although I didn’t perform too well, at the very least, I displayed my strength.
For the next few days, I waited nervously for the scores and the cutoff scores to be announced.
Thad been waiting in fear and was also vigilant of Instructor Liu’s movements. However, Instructor Liu had been busy with who knows what these past few days and rarely returned home. Every day, he would not return until very late at night. There were even days when he would hurriedly leave the
house without eating.
Although I was very curious what Instructor Liu was busy with, I was still very glad that he was busy.
Just as I was waiting anxiously, the results for the middle school examination were finally announced..
